2. Great editing on that disassembly also hats off to your creative and not awkward sponsor plug. Seamless!

3. Does sam ever finish a car? I like Sam but i lose track of his unfinished projects lol.

4. You resurrect this one it will be a lovely daily 👌🏼

5. Multiple pains in the Aston.

6. Do NOT buy those Junk Everstart Maxx or Stanley jump starters especially the $109 J5CPDE that has the 500w Inverter. They are absolutely GARBAGE! Mine literally caught on fire the 2nd time I used it to jump start my lawn mower. I tossed it out of the garage when it started smoking and it immediately caught on fire. If I wouldn't have tossed it out of the garage it probibly would have burnt my garage down.

7. That car is done

8. Convert your swimming pool into a car sized electrosonic cleaner.
   It would get alot of views.

9. The next time you have to spin a motor that is really difficult to reach consider sticking a stiff vaccume hose on the shaft and chucking the other end in a drill for a Jerry rigged flex shaft.

10. which shop did he get his tools and kit at???? lol

11. Sam a rubber belt around the motor ? To a drill 🤔

12. Let’s hope this gamble pays off.

13. Astin Martin reminds me of obsolete American Motors the way they have a soup of various car makers parts on board.

14. Almost everything is repairable, you just have to pay to play!

15. What is with you weirdos buying flood cars of all things. Mechanical is one thing but salt water kills everything

16. Nice to see Scott ! Love the content Sam

17. 2 minutes in and I'm gonna guess that the Aston will remain a field car

18. Not sure if its an incredibly big or small brain move getting a sponsorship from walmart, but im sure it pays good lol

19. That CEM or Relay box as you calls it, is also part of the immobilizer and a lot more in one. It needs to be reprogrammed in order to work. Probably not possible as it is not a virginized unit. 😫

20. Hey, great video and such an awesome car. If you need any help with anything feel free to shout out. I work with Aston Martin all day long. So if you have any questions please feel free to ask me.

21. Form a Nissan Mastertech take this advice….Replace ANY & ALL electrical components that show corrosion AND replace ANY & ALL harnesses that were underwater. That corrosion will make its way into the harness like a unseen plague. It’s the only way to guarantee that an electrical NIGHTMARE going down the road, won’t haunt the next owner.

22. I had a crazy Idea. What if you cut out an access panel in the trunk, behind the license plate to access the latch, then you could weld in a patch panel, and it would be hidden by the license plate (it could also be fully repaired and painted afterwards). You could also try to contact other DBS owners, to tell you if there's any bracing that you would have to cut through in that area

23. 17:56 that part stops the car from starting if the air bags go off

24. You might be able to drill the seat bolts out from the bottom of the body.

25. Stop saying a 286 k car!!!! It's not its 20 k of scrap parts

26. What a corrosion nightmare. Just cleaning the terminals aint gonna fix it. Just about all of those wiring connectors need to be replaced.

27. It’s a beautiful car for under 100k, today. Hope you get to restore it and enjoy it.

28. My favorite channel for exotic car repairs in a cow pasture.

29. 7:48 that diff fluid looked a hell of a lot like the lower unit gear oil in my boat…..

30. So am i the only person laughing at the fact folks paid over 200K for a "Luxury Car" & it Has Ford & Volvo Electronic's, & they got the nerve to try & charge $1000 for a Ford Part 😅😅

31. No matter how bad it is, it can only be one twentieth as bad as a certain P1..

32. I like Walmart batteries, but there is a cheaper store near me. Blains Farm and Fleet.

33. If ever you needed proof to stay away from flood cars … this is it.
